I am now in the city every Friday, teaching indoors at Pure Sports Medicine. It’s based right next to Tower 42, but allows me to teach all year round in a fantastic facility. So now we can really build on the good work we started last year and help golfers in the city with making major improvements in their golf games.
If you have friends who work in the city, please pass on my email details and I’ll be more than happy to give them more information on the packages we have available at Pure Sports Medicine.
Pure Sports Medicine 41-47 Threadneedle Street, London www.puresportsmed.com It is not a gym or a surgery, it’s a sports injury, rehabilitation and high performance centre.

Lesson Bookings –
If when ringing the shop at Chessington or the direct academy number, you have any trouble in booking the ideal time you require, then please do not despair! All you need to do is email me direct and then we will do our best to find a suitable time. It’s just a case of trying to book ahead, as normally all the prime evening and weekend slots will fill up first, so booking a week in advance is advisable. Always feel free to leave your name and contact details with the boys in the shop, as then I know who is looking for lessons and can call you back to arrange a suitable time.

The 137th Open Championship 2008
I certainly lived up to my reputation as the worst tipster in the world!! One of my boys missed the cut and the other finished joint nowhere!! Although on the Saturday pm, I did pop into a bookies in Lymington (having had the weekend off) to check the scores and had a fiver each way on Harrington!!!
A fabulous Open I’m sure you will agree, had something for everyone and for once the weather played it’s part, unlike the past few years with all the tranquil sun and light breezes. You might not agree but I love to watch the top players in the world battle and have to work for it, none of this winning at 20 under par target golf! I feel their true class and skills come through when playing in those kind of conditions and on that tough a golf course.
Although I thought the tournament might miss Tiger, I think the game proved bigger than any one player and provided a golfing treat for all!

I am confident that the juniors are in the very best hands possible and Oli will build on the success Tom has achieved over the past 3 years. Please visit the website to view Oli’s Bio and find out how your children can get involved in junior lessons, including our exciting Summer Camps!
Tom is moving on –
I am sorry to announce that Tom will be leaving the academy on the 27th July 2008. Tom has been with MJGA for just over three years and has been a real asset to myself and the team. He will be missed by us all and I know his many clients are sad to see him go. We all wish him every success in whatever he decides to do in the future and thanks again for all the great times and hard work over the past three years! Also best of luck to Tom and Penny, who get married in September, have a fab day and enjoy yourselves in Bali!

The 137th Open Championship 2008
Royal Birkdale host the Open this year and although Tiger will be watching it on the TV, I’m sure it will be a thrilling event and certainly an opportunity for someone else to stake their claim for a major!!
Being pretty much the worst tipster in the world, I thought I would give you a couple of names that I believe might be in with a shout! In reality these couple of names are two you can chalk off your list, giving you a better ratio for picking a winner!!
Lee Westwood 16-1 (not mega value, but hopefully will be in contention come Sunday pm!)
M A Jimenez 40-1 (not bad each way value)
Good luck, but don’t go too mad, it’s only a bit of fun!

Chessington 9 Hole Course -
If you have not played our course for a while, then you simply must pop up for a round. Mick Payne has done a truly amazing job this spring and it’s in the best condition I’ve seen it in for years.
It is truly a fantastic 9 hole course, with two new feature lakes and extra yardage on many of the holes. A great test for golfers of all abilities, I am convinced it’s now the best 9 hole facility in Surrey. If you haven't played it before or it's been a while since you visited, then please pop along and let us know what you think.
We have had rave reviews regarding the new layout, so please come and see it for yourself in the near future.

May 2008
Dear Golfer
A few of the things that are going on at MJGA this month!
New Staff coming to MJGA!
I am currently in the process of recruiting some new staff. We are so very busy at the moment and in our quest to look after the growing numbers of clients in the manner we require, it means we need some additional staff to achieve these high professional standards. Tom has done a great job with the children’s golf over the past couple of years and is now involved with about 12 local schools, so more help is on it’s way to help keep this great work developing to even greater levels. I will keep you updated on who the new team members are and when they arrive at MJGA!

Gainmore Mind Advantage
Our next "Open Mind" seminar will be help on Thursday 12th June at 7.30pm - 9.30pm, so please call us on 020 83919038 or visit the website at www.gainmoregolf.com to book your place.
You've been seeking a programme that will make a real and significant improvement in your game - well done! You've found it!
London Marathon 2008 Update -
Thanks to all your fantastic support I have managed to raise over £2,000 for my two great charities!! So a huge thank you to one and all who supported me, it really did make all the hard work worth while. I look forward to updating you on my next mission towards the end of the year, watch this space!!
Teaching Conference –
What a fantastic couple of days I spent on the 7th and 8th May at the teaching conference at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry. Speakers include Chuck Cook, Jamil Qureshi, Sir Clive Woodward, Dr Paul Hurrion and Dr Brian Hemmings, covering all aspects of the game from bio mechanics to psychology. We gathered some amazing info from each and every speaker, all fascinating in there own way.
Dr Paul Hurrion gave us valuable info on bio-mechanics and the work he does with Padraig Harrington on his putting and long game. Balance is obviously key in the work Paul does and he showed us some of the cutting edge drills he uses with his players.
Being a huge rugby nut, Sir Clive Woodward was always going to be of particular interest and he did not disappoint. You can see why he helped our boys win the world cup, he really is able to think outside the box and is always up for trying something new and exciting to help his team get that 1% edge over the opposition. He is actually working with a lady professional golfer now and has been for about a year. He’s basically got “Team Woodward” working with her, covering every single aspect of the hear game and health etc, so it will be very interesting to see how this pans out over the coming years, they certainly have high hopes for her. Clive talks in terms of a talented sports person is the very basic requirement, but you will win nothing with that alone. It’s all about working with that talent and then turning them into someone who is a Peak Performer, an athlete who can perform to his/her peak under the most intense pressure, otherwise all the talent in the world means nothing!
Whilst Chris Jenkins gave a fabulous insight into the work he has done in taking Oliver Fisher from a 9 year old boy all the way through to a European Tour Player at the age of just 18!
For anyone wanting greater detail and is interested in any one of the speakers in particular then please feel free to get in touch and I’d be more than happy to share my information with you.

London Marathon 2008 Update -
Well I survived and lived to fight another day! Great day, sadly two minutes slower than 7 year ago, but just sneaked under the 4 hour mark, at 3.59!! Still very proud to have run the marathon again and just had a fabulous day with the other 34,000 mad runners! A massive thank you to all of you who sponsored me, currently between the two charities we have raised in the region of £2,000, a fantastic effort so thank you so very much. Bring on the next one!!

Chessington 9 Hole Course -
I am pleased to say we have now fully opened the newly designed 9 hole course!
It is truly a fantastic 9 hole course, with two new feature lakes and extra yardage on many of the holes. A great test for golfers of all abilities and under the watchful eye of our head greenkeeper Mick Payne, I am convinced will become the best 9 hole facility in Surrey. If you haven't played it before or it's been a while since you visited, then please pop along and let us know what you think.
